John 15: 1-2, 4b-5
He takes away every branch in me that does not bear
fruit, and every one that does he prunes so that it bears
more fruit.
Our Lady of Victory,
Pray For Us
The Vine and the Branches The Vine and the Branches
Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit, because without me you can do nothing.”
Just as a branch cannot bear fruit on its own unless it remains on the vine, so neither can you unless you remain in me. I am the vine, you are the branches.

St. James Parish — Fifth Sunday of Easter Faith Moment Reflection We are each unique – with our own talents, our own experiences, our own opinions. But we are also part of something larger, something greater than each of
us. We are part of God’s family. In today’s Gospel Jesus tells us “I am the vine, you are the branches.” He means each of us – the branches – are meant to bear fruit in our own unique way to further the Kingdom of God – the vine. But we can't do it alone. We need to cooperate, each of us using our God-given talents to work together on His behalf. Just like the branches are interwoven and dependent on the vine, so are we intercon-nected and in need of God’s support. God will nourish and guide us. And we can look to Jesus as our example. As Jesus reminds us, “A branch cannot bear fruit on its own unless it remains on the vine. So neither can you.”
—Provided by Christ the King Seminary, E. Aurora, NY
Faith Formation will be hosting Coffee Hour in the parish hall this Sunday, April 29th after the
8 & 11 a.m. Masses. Join us for coffee, donuts and fellowship!
The Benefits in Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament: “When you look at the crucifix, you understand how much Jesus loved you. When you look at the Sacred Host, you understand how much Jesus loves you now. This is why we need Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration in every Parish throughout the entire World.” —St. Mother Teresa’s Reflection We have Adoration here at Our Lady of Victory chapel on weekdays and need help covering one hour: Mon. 11am-12pm, Thurs. 9-10am & Fri. 10-11am. Please call the rectory at 487.0125 if you can help. We also welcome additional help during other hours the sacrament is exposed. Chapel Hours: M, T, Th 9am-2pm; W 9am-9pm; and F 9am-12pm. Will you sit with our Lord for one hour?
VOCATIONS - Fifth Sunday of Easter Jesus is the vine and we are the branches, and if we remain in Him we will bear great fruit. What fruit will you bear in God’s kingdom? If God is calling you to a Church vocation, call Fr. Andrew Lauricella at 716.847.5535. You can also check out the “Priest of the Month” stories at www.buffalovocations.org.
“Life Changing Experience” for Teens — All high school students are invited to develop their leadership skills and make lifelong friends at the Catholic Leadership Institute (CLI), June 24th—30th at Christ the King Seminary in East Aurora, NY. Participants will learn communication, decision-making, planning, and other leadership skills that will help them in daily life and in any leadership position they assume in school, church, or work. Past youth participants have described CLI as a “life-changing experience” that helped them develop confidence, grow in their faith, and build solid, supportive friendships. For more information visit www.dobyouth.org or call the Department of Youth &Young Adult Ministry, 716.847.8789.
Prayer cards for the Confirmation and First Eucharist students will be in the vestibule by the bulletin board. Your prayers and maybe a note or card to these children and young adults would be a wonderful encouragement as they receive their Sacraments of Initiation. Thank you!
